A Strangers opinion.

DR.. H. +. Palmer from Litchtield,
Conn, has been in. the city several weeks,
and has decided to locate here. He
thinks Omaha is the best city of Its size
in the United States. He says he had
heard a great deal about Omaha and ex-
pected to see lively city, but he was
amazed to find such an immense amount
of building, and other improvements
going forward, when all the eastern
cities have been comparatively quiet the
past season. He thinks Omaha will have
a population of 500, 900 in ten years.

fully modify acknowledgements such as

see a principle of action which will Sc
cure the desired, the prayed for result
Those who are shouting aloud about the
equal distribution of property are dazzled
and bewlldered By Z figure, and are mis-
taking II for the grand reality. As the
old Baptists once ran along with their
immersion saying: awe have found re
ligion," "We have found Christi" as the
Calvinists once marched along with their
five points saying eve have found it,"
as the Romanists pointed to psp.l chair
and papal crown, and shouted aloud:
This is the true religion" so the Anti
Poverty Society Il owes out upon its new
crusade, having upon its banner the pic
lures OF free land and of poor man
made rich, and cnce more rends the air
with the shout ave have found it!n
Found what? As the old Baptists found
an emblem of snoW-white heart
but not the heart itself: as
the Cslvinists found some ideas so
vast as to be mistaken for the measure
less God; as the Romanists found chair
and crown for the successor of Christ,
but could not find the Christ for the chsir
or the crown, so
OUR ANTI-POYERTY FRIENDS
have found the picture of the poor man
made rich by some new move in the
game of life, but they have not found the
actual poverty putting on its rich and
new attire. Their riches, like that of the
old churches, are in their banners and
robes. They have sn emblem like old
Rome Of infsllibility, but not the infalli-
bility itself-the chair of Christ, but not
the Christ for the chair.
We may well be glad that these new
path seekers have come, for although
their teachings are dreams and the dreams
false, yet they may inspire the race and
the rulers of the race to leave nothing
undone, which being done might deepen
the sense Of Justice and benevolence and
make poverty less and happiness more
common. The eloquence over new means,
which are visionary, may arouse US TO
follow the means which are true, but half
despised by az age too fond of personal
self. AS the first Crusaders, not having
| found what they sought, found instead
| the literature and truth hidden away in
! Europe and the East. and were able af-
terward to find in London and Edinburgh
and the Netherlands the Jesus they found
not in distant grave, so these new lead
| ers, after roaming long toward their
dream, may return to find their best re-
wards in those truths of labor, education,
| temperance, economy, equity and benev-
olence which stand before US to-day not
dimmed by any figure, but radiant with
never changing light.
